An on-scene witness who lives one block from the location of the fire, William Snow, told Fraser Valley Today that all fire engines were on scene within an estimated 10 minutes of the initial call.

A picture from William Snow showed plywood had been mounted on the exterior of the building prior to Monday night’s fire.

The fire did not spread to any adjacent buildings, but it happened less than 100 metres from a recent apartment fire at 45744 Spadina Avenue that displaced all residents of Applewood Court.
